The Portland Trail Blazers probably would have been satisfied with a good showing against the Brooklyn Nets, NBA powerhouses from the East who walked into the Moda Center with Kevin Durant and a relatively fresh Kyrie Irving in tow. Against those two superstars, the Blazers threw out a lineup of stalwarts who wouldn’t make the top two-thirds of a league redraft in NBA2k. But six players in double-figures, a sweet second-half run of threes, and out of this world play from a rotating cast of would-be stars gave Portland a victory that few expected, but everyone outside of Brooklyn enjoyed.
